Horse (Tennesee Walking Horse) Ehemm... First off, who in their right mind pays 2500 for a unpapered 20 year old horse? Most definitely not me. "I ride her in a bareback pad..." Do you use a saddle?! Ever?!
"I will let you ride her, AFTER I ride her.." I. Don't. Think. So. When testing a horse, I always ride first, and that horse better in the pasture when I get there!
And she doesn't neck rein!?
I really don't think she's interested in selling her ANY time soon.... Haha

what I don't get is why does she need an experienced rider, but was used to teach children how to ride? LOL and you can ride her AFTER she has ridden her? omg wow I really am tempted to email these people hahahaha

I agree that the horse should be in the pasture when you get there, but you might want to re-think you riding first.
EVERY bit of horse-buying information I've read says to have the owner ride first. Then if the horse is not as represented (i.e. completely insane) you are not the one to get hurt.

I would never, ever get on a horse I intended to buy without seeing the owner ride first, unless I was buying something unbroke.
